Fear of God

Here's a couple tunes from Fear of God's "Within the Veil". Dawn Crosby was the singer of this band. She was also in the thrash metal band "Detente". Unfortunately, she died back in 1996. The End Records just re-released Detente's "Recognize No Authority". Detente were good and all, but her vocals really shined on the Fear of God stuff. It was far more gloomy and dark and more "Metal" in my eyes. I remember my friend had a song of their's on some compilation and I remember it sounding pretty heavy and liking it. That's about all I heard of them, riding around in his car listening to that one song. Fast forward up to 2006 and I finally hear them again, thanks to Melissa's friend T-bone. She sent her home with a CD for me to check out and it was pretty damn good. It definately stood the test of time. This is a fine example of "good" Metal, as opposed to unoriginal,copy cat, sound of the moment "bad" Metal.
